11th Biennale de Lyon: A Terrible Beauty is Born / La Sucrière

Posted on November 22, 2011 | Leave a comment

Last September, I attended the opening of the 11è Biennale de Lyon, “A Terrible Beauty is Born“. My first biennale of contemporary art, with a hot sunny day. First stop : La Sucrière, an old industrial building, located in a riverbank, with several exhibitions at different levels. Better than a long speech : here works of art I liked. Pictures 1 & 6 : Arthur Bispo Do Rosario, Semblantes. Picture 2 : Robbie Cornelissen, Het Grote Geheugen X / the Capacious Memory, 2011. Picture 3 : Julien Discrit, The Day Trip Project, 2011.  Pictures 4 & 5 : Robert Filliou, recherche sur l’Origine, 1974. Picture 7 : Thierry Raspail, the director of the 11th Biennale de Lyon, in front of two art works of Ernesto Ballesteros.

Posted on November 22, 2011 | Leave a comment

En septembre dernier, j’ai assisté au vernissage de la 11è Biennale de Lyon, “Une terrible beauté est née“. Ma première biennale d’art contemporain, sous une chaleur estivale. Première étape : La Sucrière, un lieu d’exposition sur plusieurs étages, dans d’anciens entrepôts. Mieux qu’un long discours : voici des oeuvres qui m’ont interpellées. Photos 1 et 6 : Arthur Bispo Do Rosario, Semblantes (tissus, fil, plastique et métal). Photo 2 : Robbie Cornelissen, Het Grote Geheugen X / the Capacious Memory, 2011 (mine de plomb). Photo 3 : Julien Discrit, The Day Trip Project, 2011 (film).  Photos 4 et 5 : Robert Filliou, recherche sur l’Origine, 1974 (pastel gras sur toile, bois)   Photo 7 : Thierry Raspail, le directeur de la11è Biennale de Lyon, devant deux oeuvres d’Ernesto Ballesteros.

Xth Biennale de Lyon (2009, France)

Posted on October 11, 2009 | Leave a comment

Web Biennale de Lyon

Till January the 3rd, 2010, the Xth Biennale de Lyon of contemporary art presents “The Spectacle of the Everyday“: seventy international artists transform everyday in something spectacular. Great “but” you think contemporay art “is pretty boring and not fun“, maybe not! Change your mind and have fun! Start by “living art”: visit in couple the exhibition spaces during a whole night. Subscribe on the website to win one night: from friday to saterday November 14th and from friday to saterday December 18th. What about exhibiting one of your pictures : be creative and think of the X shape! Then enjoy a « visite apéro » (drink visit), or  an “art dating”. And they got married and had many many works of contemporary art. To be continued… Did I mention the city of Lyon is really famous for food too?
